Is Brian Cashman’s Yankees Run Over? Craig Carton Questions If It’s Time For A Change

**Craig Carton** (0:00)
The distinction of when do the Yankees get to a point as an organization where they feel like we've reached the highest we're going to reach with Brian Cashman's GM. Not that we need new eyes, but this is what Brian Cashman is. You know, we've expanded the playoffs, so it is different than it was in the 70s and 80s. He's benefited from that, from a postseason appearance standpoint, right? But he builds a team that's good enough to play the first week in October, but has not been good enough to play the last week of October.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:31)
Not enough, right? Yeah.

**Craig Carton** (0:32)
So at some point, you're going to make a change.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:34)
Of course.

**Craig Carton** (0:34)
By the way, at some point, Cashman might wake up and go, I don't want to do this anymore. I want to do this somewhere else.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:39)
I just saw this fat kid screaming and yelling about me. Who needs this crap?

**Stevie** (0:44)
Me.

**Craig Carton** (0:44)
Oh, yeah, you're big.

**Stevie** (0:46)
But listen.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:47)
Wow.

**Stevie** (0:48)
It's like you don't know your big eye.

**Craig Carton** (0:49)
You just call yourself a big guy.

**Stevie** (0:51)
Wow.

**Craig Carton** (0:51)
I just said you're a big fella.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:52)
Wow, that was the way now, but it was the tone. No, don't tone.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:56)
I was agreeing with you. Yeah.

**Craig Carton** (0:57)
You're a big fella.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:58)
OK.

**Craig Carton** (0:59)
You've lost a couple of pounds, no?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:00)
A little bit, not much.

**Craig Carton** (1:02)
Couple?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:03)
Since the start of the show, it's about 20

**Craig Carton** (1:05)
Is that right?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:06)
Since January 5th.

**Craig Carton** (1:07)
Oh, is it that much? You were 20 pounds heavier in January?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:11)
Yeah.

**Craig Carton** (1:11)
You're a winter weight guy. Keep the kids and the wife nice and warm.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:15)
I'm just 20 pounds as a drop in the bucket, so you don't notice because you see me every day.

**Craig Carton** (1:19)
Well, I do see you every day. Good for you.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:21)
That's nothing. That's not nothing. That's it's...

**Craig Carton** (1:24)
I wouldn't be. I wouldn't...

**Chris McMonigle** (1:25)
Not anything. I mean, it's been eight months.

**Craig Carton** (1:26)
You want to go another 20, I imagine, but... Yeah.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:28)
Well, I mean, I guess, yeah.

**Craig Carton** (1:29)
20 is 20, dude.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:31)
Yeah. Okay.

**Craig Carton** (1:31)
Can you feel it? Like you're lighter on your feet?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:34)
A little bit. No, not really.

**Craig Carton** (1:35)
No? First step to the hoop against the kids? A little faster?
No?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:38)
That's never been a problem, no matter how fat I am.

**Craig Carton** (1:40)
You dominate those kids.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:41)
I'm always... I'm athletic.

**Craig Carton** (1:43)
You got to beat those kids up a little bit.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:44)
Even at the weight I'm at, I'm athletic.

**Craig Carton** (1:45)
When you beat your kids in basketball, do they cry or no?

**Chris McMonigle** (1:47)
Yes.

**Craig Carton** (1:49)
Competitive.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:51)
How about when you beat them in like, whiffle ball? To the nth degree. It's on... Like, tears crying?

**Stevie** (1:55)
They just stop playing.

**Chris McMonigle** (1:57)
Well, the little guy, his favorite line is, it's unfair.

**Craig Carton** (2:00)
Because you're bigger than him.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:01)
It's not fair!

**Stevie** (2:02)
It's not fair!

**Craig Carton** (2:04)
I beat Anthony in basketball the other day, 7-0.
Oh, is he pissed? And then I apologize. I feel bad about it.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:10)
There are certain things I'll let them win and certain things I won't let them win.

**Craig Carton** (2:15)
Because they're so young.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:15)
Legit actual sports. If we go shoot hoops in the backyard.

**Craig Carton** (2:19)
You're beating them.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:19)
Horse, two on one, doesn't matter. I win. I'm not letting you win that. One day you will win and you'll be freaking thrilled.

**Craig Carton** (2:27)
They will all beat you at some point.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:28)
Absolutely. So that's legit. But like, I hope they're not listening, but like...

**Craig Carton** (2:33)
Like if you played them in Monopoly, you let them win? Oh, yeah. Clue?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:36)
A little bit. No, but like...

**SPEAKER_4** (2:38)
Professor Plum again?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:39)
But even other sports, like if we just mess around and we have like the hallway and we play soccer in the hallway and the two doors are the goals.
